Examining the Triple Murders Committed by Steven Pladl, Central to **Husband, Father, Killer: The Alyssa Pladl Story**
Following Alyssa’s report to police about Steven and Katie’s inappropriate relationship, the authorities intervened. Both individuals were detained for a significant period but were eventually released under court supervision while their legal cases were being prepared.
During the legal proceedings, Bennett, the biological child of Katie and Steven, was put under the care of Steven’s mother, while Katie was mandated to remain apart from Steven and was placed in the custody of her adoptive parents.
This arrangement meant that Steven, Katie, and Bennett were prohibited from any contact. However, on April 12, 2018, Steven allegedly violated the terms and took Bennett, after which he is suspected of killing him.
Bennett’s remains were reportedly found in the home that Steven and Katie had shared prior to their arrests. Following this, Steven is believed to have traveled to New Milford, Connecticut, where he killed both Katie and her adoptive father, before tragically ending his own life.
